This week (on the hottest day of the year) we are talking about Joseph Pocklington. A man with a dream to become an architect, and who was fortunate enough to have enough money to make that dream a reality despite a complete lack of skill.
Creating a series of questionable buildings across Nottinghamshire, Joseph then set his sights on the Lake District. However, he found that the locals were a bit less tolerant of his 'beautification' of the area.
Given the moniker: 'The Man With No Taste', Joseph knew he needed to do something big to win over the people of Cumbria...
...But fortunately he had already built a fort complete with a gun battery on his own personal island, so the solution seemed obvious.
